<para>

<command>ALTER OPERATOR</command> changes the definition of

an operator. The only currently available functionality is to change the

owner of the operator.

<para>
|
|
You must own the operator to use <command>ALTER OPERATOR</>.
|
|
To alter the owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new
|
|
owning role, and that role must have <literal>CREATE</literal> privilege on
|
|
the operator's schema. (These restrictions enforce that altering the owner
|
|
doesn't do anything you couldn't do by dropping and recreating the operator.
|
|
However, a superuser can alter ownership of any operator anyway.)
